Chapter 24: Am I Born?
After Xie Sheng left, Xie Shence looked at his squinting grandfather, and felt a little uneasy in his heart, because this family did have too many differences with himself. And many things, such as ideological things, are even more contrary to the world, such as basic human rights, such as equality for all, such as civil rights, and even more so, democracy and freedom.
He absolutely did not dare to say these words, even to his grandfather, or even to his eldest brother.
Because they are not people of the same world. Is the land owned by the peasants? No, it's the landlord; Is this wealth owned by the merchants? No, it's the government; Is the world owned by the people? No, it's the emperor. Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. This sentence tells you very thoroughly who the masters of this world are - emperors, tycoons, and landlords. Not only these people think that the world is theirs, but almost all people who do not belong to them think that the world should be theirs.
If someone dares to stand up and say, "The people are the masters of the world." "Then you are the enemy of all people in this world. The people will not be on your side.
Therefore, Xie Shence has been careful for ten years and does not dare to show his feet in front of people.
Ten years have passed, you have a biggest secret, this secret has enough power to subvert the world, but you can't say anyone, you can only chew carefully in the occasional dead of night, tell yourself: you live a real and illusory life.
This feeling can drive people crazy, but Xie Shence didn't go crazy in the end.
So he was thankful for a person, someone who was nominally and actually related by blood, who listened to his crazy talk for ten years.
After coming back to his senses, Xie Shence asked his grandfather: "Lord Cai said that the emperor may have a reward for me, grandpa, what do you think?"
The old lady suddenly laughed: "You call him Lord Cai?" Well, it's okay, Gonggong Cai is one of the three eunuchs of the celebrant eunuch, and he leads the position of Zhu Pi, so it is appropriate for you to call him Lord. ”
Xie Shence was taken aback, the three eunuchs of the ceremonial eunuch have always been people of great power, this Gonggong Cai is a eunuch of Zhu Pi, it can be imagined that in the palace, in the imperial court, how powerful he is.
Xie Shence just looked at the eunuchs according to the eyes of the Ming Dynasty, and felt that people like eunuchs were very dangerous, and it was better to offend less, and it was best not to offend. The eunuch was physically deficient, so he shouted "Lord" very respectfully with the idea of staying away, and Eunuch Cai was obviously very satisfied with his title. So the few words of greeting were very harmonious, even though the two sides met for the first time.
"A big fish!" Xie Shence was secretly excited since he was a child.
The old lady continued: "Your Majesty has rewarded you, which is a good thing, but do you think that if you give Your Majesty a Feather Flower Pavilion, Your Majesty will definitely appreciate you?" Grandson, you remember, the emperor's appreciation is not given casually.
Moreover, do you think the emperor is really willing to reward you? Even we all know that the crown prince and the king of Qi are fighting for the national jade seal, will Your Majesty not know? There was such a big commotion, why didn't Your Majesty react at all? Why does His Majesty not praise or disparage the actions of the king and the crown prince?
You should also know that the crown prince and the king of Qi first got the news in the north, and in the north, the prince and the king of Qi were in the capital, how could they get the news of the frontier? Or is it such important news? Is the news of partiality still so hidden? Only the two of them know?
Beiyan Murong doesn't know? Xianbei people don't know? The people of Western Qin don't know? Your Majesty doesn't know? ”
Xie Shence's face turned white instantly, and cold sweat flowed behind his back.
Yes, Xie Shence has always felt that this matter is strange, as if there is a veil covering his eyes, and now it is suddenly clear.
From Yecheng to Jinyang, hundreds of people died along the way, so from Northern Xinjiang to Yecheng, only more people will die! Why didn't His Majesty react? Why didn't Beiyan and Xianbei people react?
Because this is a bureau set up by His Majesty!
Only in this way can it be explained! Yes, only the bureau laid out by the emperor will have such an effect. Isn't it? Otherwise, with the all-pervasive means of the Tiqi, how could the two princes know before the emperor, and still be able to control the news?
Then why did His Majesty the Emperor do this? Why do you say?
Because of the prince! The king of Qi is already about to catch up with the crown prince, so does the emperor have to consider whether the prince is really the best among his sons? If not, then is King Qi really more suitable than the crown prince? What do the ministers under their command think? The emperor doesn't know, right? That's not easy, don't you know if you test it? So the emperor got a jade seal to pass on the country, so the prince and the king of Qi pinched up, so the ministers in the court who were interested in the emperor's family affairs moved, so His Majesty the emperor could see it clearly.
The emperor played a game of chess that was so big that everyone was a pawn except for a very few people.
It's just that the emperor was happy, and when he was halfway down, he was suddenly interrupted.
If it's you, you want to know which of your two children is smarter, so you let them compete to do their homework, and then a lot of people give each child an idea, and then someone suddenly jumps out and points at the two children and says, "They cheat!" ”
What would you think?
It's my family affair! You interrupted me!
Can you beat up the person who spoils your interest? No, because children do not do it right, and you acquiesce to it when you know they are wrong, and you are not right. There is nothing wrong with someone else pointing out that this is not right. You can't hit people.
The key is that there are more heavyweight people, such as your mother, and your teacher are watching from the sidelines, so not only can you not beat or scold, but you have to smile and say, "You're right, you've done a good job, come, this candy award is for you." ”
So at this time, His Majesty the Emperor rewarded himself, and he should not like his own approach very much!
Xie Shence realized that it seemed that as soon as he came home, he really caused a big disaster.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty is not so petty, Yuhua Pavilion is very smart and did not reveal any news, you are also very smart and did not ask Yuhua Pavilion anything, and you are very smart not to hand over the person to either the prince and the King of Qi, but to the emperor himself, so Your Majesty feels to you, well, not bad."
Listening to his grandfather's comfort, Xie Shence only smiled bitterly in his heart.
"Your Majesty does feel good about me, but he ruined his good situation, and slapped his two sons in front of him, no matter how optimistic the emperor is about me, this thorn has also been planted in the bottom of his heart."
The old lady waited for him to finish speaking, looked at Xie Shence, and his eyes remained motionless.
Xie Shence was furious when he was seen.
"Very good, it's nice that you can think of this."
Grandpa didn't blame himself for being disrespectful, but praised himself?
"You can think like this, which shows that Old Man Wang did not teach you in vain. But it's not enough. It doesn't matter, you haven't been in Kyoto all these years, and many things are unfamiliar, take your time and don't rush. The old lady closed her eyes slightly, and tapped the handrail lightly with the fingers of one hand.
Take it easy? Looks like there's still a long way to go
But since grandpa said that he is not in a hurry, then he is not in a hurry.
"What about the etiquette of entering the palace?"
"There are not so many rules, the emperor has been a very kind person since he was a child, and there are not so many things to pay attention to in the palace. However, if you shouldn't say it, don't say it. ”
Isn't that nonsense! However, in front of the old man, Xie Shence didn't dare to show it at all.
Xie Shence keenly captured the word "from childhood".
"Your Majesty appreciates you, so you don't have any psychological burden, just accept it calmly." After a pause, the old lady continued: "You entered the palace when you were a child, and Your Majesty and the Empress are very fond of you. Several concubines in the palace are extremely fond of the gadgets you have made, so don't worry about being harassed when you enter the palace. ”
Brother Xiao Xie then remembered that he was indeed the one who had entered the palace, but it was still the real Xie Shence and not himself. As for His Majesty's liking, probably he praised himself for his endorsement back then.
Does the queen like it? Who to fool! Didn't she ruin the good things of her son, brother and husband, would the queen be such a face-saving person?
It's not surprising that the concubines in the palace like their own "little inventions", toilet paper, toothbrushes or something, necessities of life, who can not use them? As for the more important masks, beauty, what is the little Nene, anti-sagging, Xiao Brother Xie dares to say that even a woman must like it, not to mention the harem concubines.
Of course, I must interject that many of Xiao Xie's "inventions" are "borrowed" from the life experience of his previous life, and the people of the Great Jin Dynasty are open, and they are extremely receptive to these things that improve the quality of life, so they quickly became popular all over the country and became popular all over the world. As for those products designed for women (of course, they will not be under the name of Brother Xiao Xie himself, and they have worked hard) products, they were indeed severely reprimanded by their aunt at first for not doing their jobs.
But after using it, Fang knew the benefits, and in the end, it seemed that he did get the tacit approval of his aunt, otherwise Mr. Zhang would have been peeled and cramped. What made Xiao Xie Ge sad was that he just did it as he wished, and he did not apply for a "patent right", so he was stolen by Wang Dai, and simply through Wang Qingyan's relationship, Wang Tuhao would symbolically compensate for it every year.
Xie Shence's surprise is that the queen likes herself very much, and Xie Shence doesn't believe it when she says it from other people's mouths, but what grandpa said has always been extremely reliable. This has been proven by the Great Jin Dynasty for decades.
In the evening, Xie Shence, who was full of wine and food, unexpectedly saw his mother in his small courtyard.
This was the first time that my mother had come to see me. Xie Shence felt an inexplicable shock: Should I cry with joy?
And the mother's first sentence really shocked Xie Shence.
"The queen is your aunt."
I'm tired! Where could there be a more shocking joke?
"A long time ago, the relationship between the queen and me was very good, she married first, and she married the prince at that time, which is now the saint, and then later, after I married your father, there was less contact. But you don't have to worry, she is the most nostalgic person in the world, you can talk to her more when you enter the palace, you are her nephew, don't be afraid. ”
My mother came to visit, dropped a bombshell, and left as usual, without the slightest fireworks. Leaving Brother Xie, who was still in shock, behind.
The queen is her aunt, and her mother and the queen are sisters, so the mother's surname is Sima? Then Sima Lao Er is his uncle? The crown prince and the king of Qi are his cousins?
How did I not know? Mother is actually Sima family! Wait, I didn't know what my mother's surname was for so many years?
When Brother Xiao Xie asked Xie Shenwei with an angry face, Xie Shenwei let out a faint "oh" and said, "You don't know? I thought you knew. You don't know why don't you ask? ”
I asked your sister.
Sure enough, none of the people in the big family are simple, no, every one of them is normal.
On the first day of returning home, Brother Xiao Xie was probably in constant shock.
It turns out that many things are not what I thought. I'm actually the most ignorant of all. Xie Shence or is it not biological?
